Account
OAuth Client Secret Reset
https://api.linode.com/v4/account/oauth-clients/{clientId}/reset-secretResets the OAuth Client secret for a client you own, and returns the OAuth Client with the plaintext secret. This secret is not supposed to be publicly known or disclosed anywhere. This can be used to generate a new secret in case the one you have has been leaked, or to get a new secret if you lost the original. The old secret is expired immediately, and logins to your client with the old secret will fail.
Path Parameters
The OAuth Client ID to look up.
